Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • but at the same time, and whilst each person is entitled to their own opinions etc etc, this thread IS about what each VWWA member finds inspirational to THEM. and the fact is, with the serious number of tinkerers on here, something like a mint condition datsun/ early nissan, worked engine, immaculate exterior/ engine bay/ interior, is gonna be pretty inspirational. to them.
    That Skyline looks fantastic, I like!

    • That 31 is damn clean, runs perfect 16" reverse meshies with perfect offsets, nicely dropped and clean and simple with the only other exterior mod being an import Auto Spoiler (front lip). Much respect!

      Seems to be 95% of the time, arguments in here get provoked by the same person.... why must this be?

          Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! I assume that post was a joke!
          You are seroiusly a dead head. I dont know what makes you tick. But for the crying out loud.

          You mock evey single car, complain about offset, stance, noise etc.

          I dont know what you do or havnt meet you but I sure do hope you are not a keyboard warrior in real life becuase if you are you can go play checkers by yourself.

          That is a friend of a few of the guys on this forum, he has spent a lot of time, not too much dollars and has built up on the cleanest r31's in Oz.

              "Things" don't inspire me... People that achieve great things inspire me. The first person that comes to mind is Christopher Reeve. Talk about having the odds stacked against you but never losing your positive outlook. To me, THAT is what is truely inspirational. That's just one example of many. Sophie Delezio is another inspiration... To suffer as she has at such a young age but to still be happy and bring happiness to others is simply amazing! The human capacity of generosity and compassion in generasl is inspirational. It's just unfortunate it's not as prominant as greed and violence.

              Some cars, bikes and helicopters (ok and some planes) give me the "James May tingle" but I wouldn't consider them "inspirational".

              As for being argumentative, I'm not (and never will be) argumentative. I will simply voice my own ideas and opinions as passionately as other people do. If you consider that to be an argument then more fool you. I'm proud of the fact that I think and feel so strongly about everything positive in my life. If you're not, or if you can't handle or understand that, then I'm sorry.

As for the Suzuki remark, each to their own but owning one of the fastest street legal bikes in the world is fantastic! People spend $500,000 on a car that doesn't go as fast as something I bought for less than $20,000.
                  I knew you like to bend over forward and go realy fast!

                  Why do you find the need to piss people off? You cant be that stupid not to know that your comments are going to start shiz. Next time your typing out your provocative comment, before you hit Post Reply, have a think is it needed and then press Alt+F4.
